Trent Reznor Trashes Twitter!

Filed under: Twitter

6140587reznor__opt.jpg

Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor has left Twitter and since he's never been one to hold back, discusses the evils of the latest social networking phenomenon.

"Yes, I deleted my account and I'll explain why since somehow someone apparently thinks this is newsworthy," says Reznor. "Twitter seemed like an interesting way to quickly reach a large number of people, and people that seem to exist outside of the nin.com world of fans."

He's pretty vocal for hating press!!!

The singer continues, "Then… around the time news broke of my engagement, a faction of troublemakers showed up whose sole intent was to disrupt, harass, insult and incite…In a reasonably moderated community, these people can be made to vanish - on Twitter, it's a free-for-all - hence they flock there. It depresses me to think my art and life's work can attract this kind of scum…if that was your intention you trolling, cowardly pigs - you've succeeded."

Reznor is such a drama queen!

      How is he being a drama queen when he makes perfect sense?
      You drop three pounds and you make a large deal out of that as if it was the greatest news ever, and you call him a drama queen? Grow up Perez.

      Speaking of Drama Queens..

      I wanna "tweet" you like an animal.

      I want to twit you like an animal!

      lol at silly billie
      he's a wuss and this is old news

      There are a lot of haters on the web! This site is a good example! All kinds of people are like "hate perez", "fuck perez", "your a shitty blogger". But its like well…if you feel that way why do you go on his site and read his blogs AND comment them??? It doesnt make sense. Some people have nothing better to do than be negative.



    9. 9

      He's no drama queen…
      He makes absolutely perfect sense.

      Reznor is an artist who doesn't want to be known for his personal life. He just wants to share his work.



    10. 10

      I think he's totally right. Why would someone want to put themselves out there when they have to deal with idiots like that? I truly cannot believe some of the things people write online. It is a safe place for cowards to post nasty opinions anonymously, though. There's always a group of bad apples that have to spoil things for everyone!



    11. 11

      no, perez.

      a drama queen is someone who tweets while getting their ass beat.



    12. 12

      HAHAHAHA MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. FUCK NINE INCH NAILS AND FUCK TRENT REZNOR, THEY ARE THE INDUSTRIAL EQUIVALENT TO THE BACK STREET BOYS. LISTEN TO REAL INDUSTRIAL LIKE MINISTRY AND BIG BLACK

      you're calling Trent a drama queen you fat fuck?

      Re: tboner – Your a perfect example. LOL



    17. 17

      Re: onceinawhile – Its so true! It gets annoying when all you want to do is read the feed back on the blog and you find nothing but hateful and annoying comments.

      Drama queen? He makes perfect sense!
      He shared some honest thoughts and things that happened in his life and that's what the press decided to write about instead of his music. I would get mad at the press too if that happened to me.



    19. 19

      If he's a drama queen, then what does that make you Perez?
      Everything he said was completely right.



    20. 20

      I actually agree with him. People who are hateful but don't want to say anything to anyones face hide behind an online persona.

      Even on here, it gets annoying reading the "fuck perez" comments. It's like… if you hate it so much why the hell are you here in the first place!?



    21. 21

      HE is the Drama Queen? Black, meet kettle.



    22. 22

      waaaaaah! i'm an attention whore that wanted to use social media for my own selfish purposes and people who don't like me were mean to me! waaaaaah!!!!!

      go marinate in all your fucking money, you EmoOldManRichGuy.



    23. 23

      How are YOU going to call someone a drama queen you fat pig-faced fuck. Everything he said made perfect sense. You suck loser.



    24. 24

      Re: SWEETPIECE!:) Had to contain the drunk psycho. Miss you too ;)



    25. 25

      Re: _Alice_ – Hey Alice:) Best wishes for you and the posse! (minus a screeching primate) Still living far, far away? Take care! SP



    26. 26

      Don't f*ck with Tren, Mario. Seriously. I had a home-tape of his made by a secret older boyfriend who was a DJ. I had his first album for 3 months B4 anyone knew he was. Did you know that when he first got started, because he was cash-strapped, he wrote the lyrics, sang the songs, and played all of the instruments, then edit it all together. And there you have the "Head Like a Hole" CD. Can you do that? No, you can't, so just stop trying to stir the pot, okay? You've already got so many ghost writers that there's too many cook's in the kitch to stir anything!



    27. 27

      Re: SWEETPIECE! – The posse is great:) All is well. Take care bunny;)



    28. 28

      I like Trent Reznor. His music is amazing and it's almost sad how many of your don't even realize that since you're so stuck on Lady GaGa, Britney Spears, Slipknot, and whatever else all you lames listen to.



    29. 29

      Re: DANNYGLOVERSDICKBLOOD – Ministry, Black Flag, Danzig, yeah, all those guys were out there already. They were great and they weren't getting any play. But, come on, Trent is ridiculously talented. That first CD was complied, played and edited by himself. That's impressive. And have you ever seen one of his concerts? Backstreet Boys comparissons? All 3 of his concerts I attended (all in the mosh pit) had people phyically hurt from working themselves up so much. I saw two broken noses and three cases of cracked ribs. You would have probably laughed your ass off trying to watch me, this tiny girl, trying to muddle the hell away out of a mosh pit I got stuck in. Yeah, I think Ministry and Black Flag are way harder, But I don't agree with your comparisson. To this day, my favorite song is Danzig's "I don't Mind the Pain." Which is oddly ironic but also an entirely different matter.
      But I do like you taste in music!

      Re: tigrrrlilly – Emo wasn't around then. Just children of the hippies who wanted to be rebellious like they're parents were, only we didn't have a war to protes; although we did do a lot of petitioning and sit-ins and picketings for the Prisoners of War, still in Vietnam. But musically, there was NOTHING emo. You were either preppy (barf) or a drama kid, or a grunge kid, or the all-in-black kids. And B4 you get too excited about the all-in-black thing, they didn't mostly dye their hair black, nor did they wear their hair on their face to the point where they could not see. No, those people were Wiccans, Druids, or Pagan's. The underground of the late 90s - particularly in England was real. No playing dress up Goth just for Friday night, no throw the flannel shirt in the closet until the weekend- nothing like that. And I'm not even going to get into the horrific drug use.

      Trent Reznor is insanely talented, and I saw him in June…best concert in my LIFE. I have loved his music and respected him for 17 years. But his behavior has been erratic lately. I can't imagine the pressure that he faces, but his reactions have been immature for a man of his experience and age. He needs to stop shitting on the people who pay his bills.



    32. 32

      Re: FaeRae_86 – You have great taste in music! And while I had a shit seat, the NIN concert I saw in June was the best of my life (and I've seen many). He is incredibly talented. I just think that, lately, some of his actions have not been appropriate. BTW, Danzig's 4P is still one of my favorites.



    33. 33

      he is amazing!



    34. 34

      Re: lostmyway – Thank You! I can't bring myself to say anything bad about Trent, I just . . .can't. You know, that time & that place in your life where a certain music made it better? That was mine. He is acting erratic, but he's been at this for so long now, I think part of him wants to bow out gracefully, but the musician in him still needs an outlet. And now he's engaged, his life is going to change drastically - possibly even w/ the possibilities of fatherhood. I think maybe he feels like he's living in a little microcosim with all these different forces and opinions making his world smaller and smaller, yet more and more public. I think I'd be screwed up to. I hope that when this all dies down everything will be okay. And your welcome to come catch any show with me anytime! We'd kick ass.



    35. 35

      this is old news idiot
      and you calling Reznor a drama queen is DEFINITELY the pot calling the kettle black

      and you all fuckwads insulting Trent, try doing what he did for many years >:|



    36. 36

      He was the coolest guy ever too on there, glad I got to see it, and him this past June.. he's still fucking hot as fucking hell!!!!!



    37. 37

      this douche is old, fat, and whiney, the perfect combination



    38. 38

      Re: Rissa Roo – I so agree with you. I don't get why people respond to half of these posts when they have zero interest or hate the celebrity entirely. If it's like that, why don't they just keep it moving to the next post. Like the old saying goes: "if you have nothing good to say, then don't say nothing at all…"



    39. 39

      perez it's pretty obvious nobody wants to hear ANYTHING ABOUT YOU. we are here for the hollywood news. not your overyly homo views (im gay, i can say that)



    40. 40

      wow.
      talk about throwing stones in a glass house Perez…
      TRENT is a drama queen???? that is a pretty desperate and ridiculous comment…
      and it's quite funny coming from a man whose whole career is based on creating, over-inflating, and depending on drama.



    41. 41

      Re: sumara – by far the best comment here



    42. 42

      HE is a drama queen? Isn't this Perez Hilton's website where he can act like an asshole and if someone calls him on it, they get their posts deleted?



    43. 43

      Re: FaeRae_86 – Fae, I wish I had your email. I will put it out there - lway2009 @ gmail . com. Email me, please.



    44. 44

      Re: lostmyway – Oh! Also, stsnding in the pit was AMAZING! It felt like you could touch him, he was all in black leather (Sleevlesssss) and he was so into his music that, some will say this is gross, put his sweat would actually hit you once in a while. After about three songs, I turned to my hubby (got married waaaaaaay to young) and said: "Sorry, but I'd leave you for him." His response, "Yeah, I would, too." Hilarious!!



    45. 45

      Re: Rissa Roo – Ahhh, the utter logic of that statement. You are seriously asking what is wrong with people who come and read Perez' drivel and then lambast him? Indeed. It is equally incredible to me. After all, PerezHilton.com is the epitome of fair, concise, grammatically-correct, spelling-error-free, non-biased, non-venomous, relevant and newsworthy celebrity information. Everyone should be bowing at his feet, coating his path with saliva, offering to wax his back and his toes. Absolutely. Hold me back.

      Re: IveHadQuiteEnoughTYVM – You are the most sarcastic person I have encountered in a long time - VERY refreshing. Too bad that I had to meet you here, where 90% of the readers will not understand you.



    51. 51

      Your website is getting so boring, Mario. I used to visit several times a day but now, it's good if I check it every other day. All you do is talk about lady gag gag.



    52. 52

      Why is it only the interesting people refuse to "tweet" or whatever the hell it's called? Somebody pls shove a full Mac up Ashton K's arse.



    53. 53

      Trent used to be hot. Like 10 or 12 years ago.
